I have never before posted about or even commented on the death of Matthew Shepard, I have found it so traumatic. But I wish to end my silence to say that what struck me about one of his two murderers (the one with the sideburns) was that he (the murderer) seemed to be suffering extremely repressed homosexual sentiments. He just looked sexually troubled. Is that politically incorrect to say? Too bad, that's how he looked to me.

Matthew, I'm sorry you're dead. And there's nothing good one can say about it. This is why what we do matters, and why we must not murder.
